How NOT to teach reading :)
 
I went to a Longman seminar last Wednesday where Rob Dean gave a presentation on "Learn to read; read to Learn" and he finished off with a clip taken from Little Britain, which was a great laugh. I don �t know if it will have the same effect on you given the fact that you were not at the seminar and that it �s taken out of the context ... Well, give it a go and see ...
NOTE: Do not watch the whole vid. Start from 4:24.

I don �t have time to watch the video now as I �m going out but "Little Britain" always had me in stitches (I LOVED Marjorie Dawes and her "FatFighters"!!) so I can �t wait to watch it!!!
